(IMG:style_emoticons/default/wavey.gif) Just got back from taking my newly aquired 1979 Beaver to (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) CAMPING WORLD for a roof air conditioner. I met so many motorhomes coming towards me that I thought "let's see if they'll wave"!
and so it began (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wavey.gif)
I must'a waved 30 times in 30 miles and not 1 waved back (IMG:style_emoticons/default/finger.gif) but I'm not gonna let that stop me. Maybe, just maybe I can get the RV crowd to start a wave thing.

P.s. I KNOW they'd take notice if I started (IMG:style_emoticons/default/finger.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Someone I used to work with had a "Dragon" - a Daimler Dart - called the "dragon" because they were butt ugly. He's owned it since something like 1950 - and he used to go on about how cool it was to drive in Britain back in the 50's. Basically he siad you could drive around country roads for a whole day and not see another motorist. If you did see someone you would of course wave and they would also wave - because who the hell else would they get a chance to wave to.

Sounded Awesome. I was born too late.

Fiid.

Ireland is still the same way. Bike'n, walk'n or drive'n out in the country you wave and get one back. Friendly civilized people those Irish, except the occasional little bomb thingy...

Have fun,
Kevin

PS I've been experimenting with flashes (not that kinda flash (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) )and waves to other p-cars here (can't swing in a cat without hitting a half dozen p-cars in my neck of the woods). Mostly blank stares but the vintage p-car guys almost always get it. I think the leased p-car people will never get it...
